The movie experience guys were really great they worked hard and we’re very efficient and I would definitely hire them again.

Mover's response:
Thank you Carol. Best of luck with the rest of the move! Let us know if we can ever help again. :)

Team actually showed up early and more than prepared for the job. Anything that would have been needed was included in their truck.
Team that loaded our POD fit a lot more into it than I imagined.
They were very careful with our furniture and wrapped each piece in blankets to make sure they were not scratched.
They were able to fill the POD in less than 3 hours.
We would use The Moving Experience should we need services again.

Mover's response:
Thanks you Stan! Great helping and thanks for letting us give you our best work!

The two hands arrived on time and ready to work. They worked efficiently and relentlessly to get my job done. They cheerfully did everything I asked of them. Although the storage units they were moving for me were heavy (275# each), nothing was damaged. I would use the folks at The Moving Experience again without hesitation.

Mover's response:
Thank you Richard! Hope everything went great with the rest of the move!

We were very very pleased with The Moving Experience. If you appreciate professionalism, this is the company to hire. They were on time, communicative and were extremely careful with our furniture and our home. They didn' t take shortcuts but made sure everything was protected and wrapped carefully. It was a difficult move due to our long steep driveway, having to move things twice because our rental van couldn't fit up our driveway. They loaded things twice, once in pick-up trucks and then into the moving van, all without a single complaint. I would use them again for sure. Matt & Margie Wallace

Mover's response:
Thank you Marjorie. I hope everything went well with the next part of your move. Pleasure helping you and the family with the move, and thank you for working so hard and being easy to work for. Moving is moving and sometimes things don't always go according to plan, but it makes a big difference when people are reasonable, positive, and easy to work for. Great moving you and we would happily help you again anytime : )

The Moving Experience guys were top notch. Quite frankly I was worried since we were not happy with the loading people, but this group knew what they were doing and were very professional. They wrapped all corners and taped all door thresh holds to protect from nicks and scratches (something the loaders did not do) which was greatly appreciated. They went about unloading the furniture very efficiently and were so polite and courteous. They assured me that it was no problem moving an item twice because they wanted me to be happy where the furniture and boxes were placed. They had all the proper tools and were experts in their jobs. The washer and dryer just barely fit into the laundry room but they assessed the problem and discussed a solution with my husband and they got them in. I can't say enough good things about Aaron, Brad and L.G. I can highly recommend them to anyone.

Mover's response:
Thank you so much for the outstanding review. We were happy to meet such nice people and thank you for really letting us shine for you. Happy to help again anytime, and thank you for appreciating our skill level and experience. It's not always an easy task explaining it to people on the phone, but we really do care and we strive to go above and beyond for every single customer. Thank you again and best of luck in the new home!!

They were on time and ready to get to work. They worked steadily until all was done.. We found a leg that was damaged in the storage container and they fixed it. I would use them again and would recommend them.

Mover's response:
No problem with helping you repair the leg that someone else damaged for you - we get all sorts of calls for this and veneer repairs on pianos sometimes, too. Glad we were the crew that was there to find it since we always carry a huge assortment of tools and we use highly experienced professionals who can go above and beyond for you. Thanks again for the work, and take care!

The guys at Moving Experience could not have been more helpful, or more deserving to receive the highest rating that could be given. They arrived early, with proper support equipment, worked hard, and did a great job of packing our moving truck. What a nice bunch of people. I wish I could clone them for all my manpower needs. Their help made a difficult move as easy as it possibly could be. Their attention to detail was excellent, and even though the size of the project was larger then initially contracted for, they stuck with us and made sure everything was completed to our satisfaction. Thank you so much! ....... Jeff and Marcia Evans

Very professional, on time and took special care of unloading and moving our furniture. In the future we will recommend the moving experience. If we decide to move again we will contact the moving experience. 5 stars Jinny and Mike Elder

Mover's response:
It was a pleasure serving you. We specialize in hard to move items like pianos, safes, spas, having a nice touch on antiques like yours and above all else customer service. It was a pleasure handling your very nice furniture and thank you for giving us the opportunity to meet you and help you move in to your place. We would be honored to serve you again in the future...Thanks!

Aaron and Andre were the best movers ever, thorough, professional, and very careful. Would recommend them highly. They were on time and stayed an additional 1 3/4 hours to get the job done.

Mover's response:
Thank you for being so wonderful to work for and we sincerely appreciate you taking the time to review our service. You are the best and nicest customers that a mover could possible ask for and you also have such nice furniture! Thank you for giving us your trust and letting us shine for you and give you our best! It was an absolute pleasure meeting you and we look forward to serving you again anytime in the future!! Thank you!!
